I figured it might be a good idea to put an ACTUAL cooler on the electric power steering pump. Ford used this goofy POS on there. Looks like a damn element for an oven.



So I bought this setup made by Hayden. Already got it today, and it's really decent quality. I don't know if I'll use it in conjunction with, or instead of the original tube.

I vote instead of unless that tube runs to a location that makes the install easier.

Ah yes.... forgot about Bonanza! He watched that a lot as well. Don't know how the heck that one slipped my mind, he liked Michael Landon a lot in that, as well as Hoss.

I'm leaning more (about 97.64%) towards the instead of as well. Probably a wiser decision overall.



Recalculating.... more like a 98.37% chance now.

Don't you hate it when people crash your quarantine ? One couple is still here...the guys plus 1 is cooking breakfast though..Nah, even got a few gifts yesterday....some Ninja blender looking thing and a big pan of Tuna and noddle casserole lol. Just a few folks you get use to seeing everyday which you really don't think about that much...well, until somebody is missing that is. That throws a sparky into the relationship I guess.
Had to start freezing the soup donations....but that's alright. Played host and grill master yesterday, more my style. Grilled Salmon and Corn grilled right in the husk. Did steak fillet as well, but that wasn't for me. An add in, I grilled it though. Not everybody was a Salmon fan. Mash (no gravy, didn't need it anyway) and rice as well.

Sodium intake was 300 mg for the day, and that's only because I was slipped a 1/2 a cup of dairy free ice cream before I read the back...while most everyone else was shoveling in Moose Tracks . That didn't hurt one bit....nope!

59 6'2" Medium frame I think..well, can't wear a large in a t-shirt, too sticky..has to be a XL. Weighed 185 most my life...that ended after 55. Anyway I was at 211 when I went into emergency on the 25th of last month. 196 upon discharge 5 days later. 198 (different scale) the last 2 days and 194 this morning. Have to weight in and check BP same time every morning now. Document it to MyChart online.

Once again, didn't think of pics that much, getting better at that. Got a few on occasion, -

Chicken an beans from Friday night, -



Cleaning up, before I thought about a picture, what's left of the fish...that was good.



Then of course, -



You guys are an inspiration, so are the folks around me...when it comes right down to it. Thanks for the posts!

I usually do to when they are from the garden on the grill... also I haven't prepared them before now. These were store bought in a bag and I attempted to bake them Friday. 20 min at 350 with olive oil and a pedal of garlic. Should of tasted better but they didn't..eatable though.

Learning I guess.

Oh yea, almost forgot...got a few, well, a little more than that "Nice Truck" comments on our way out of Walmart last night (late ice cream run). Hang out spot maybe? Not sure, lot of people in the parking lot though...no idea why. We had to take the long way around getting out there though..directional parking lot. Don't do Walmart much, so I don't no.

But yes sir...I agree...it sticks out when clean. Drive in the rain, it blends in with every other vehicle out there. Specially Black trucks.
